Been thinking about visiting Greece and wanted to get the latest intel from those who've been recently.
Specifically interested in:
1. Current price ranges
2. Best areas to base yourself
3. Any safety concerns
4. How's the quality compared to Germany?
Any recent trip reports would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I was there in March and prices were exactly as described.
Spent about $98/day all-in. Quality was above average.
My tip: avoid weekends.

Adding my experience from February.
The scene has changed a bit since pre-COVID. Biggest change: better quality overall.

Hmm, I had a different experience. Prices were lower when I went. Maybe timing matters.

How long did it take to feel comfortable and find the good spots?

I'd also recommend downloading Maps.me before you go. Essential.
